Articles about Geoff Cook
Profile:
Though a very able county opening batsman, Geoff Cook's main
contribution to English cricket has been as an administrator. Having
been instrumental in improving the lot of the county pro through his
diligent work as secretary and chairman of the Cricketer's Association,
in 1991 he returned to his native north-east as Director of Cricket for
Durham's maiden season as a first-class county. In common with several
other players of his generation, Cook's England chance came about as a
result of the ban imposed on the 1982 rebel tourists to S.Africa. He
never really seized this opportunity, being unable to transfer his
consistent county form to the big stage.
